I just got a great deal on a Honda CB750 with less than 12k. Seems like a great bike, starts right up, runs pretty smooth. I want to convert it to a cafe racer style bike. I have zero experience doing this, don't really know how to start. I would like some advice from you all on how to avoid some mistakes.
Thanks!

I think an 80 cb750 makes a good cafe bike. I've got a few cb750's most are earlier SOHC but I have one 79 dohc. Im gradually turning a 78 cb750f Super Sport into a café bike. I've also got a 75 cb750f SuperSport, a 77 cb750f SuperSport, a 79 cb750l, and a 71 cb750k1. Plus a few different parts bikes. Even if your 80 cb750 is a "C" model when you do your conversion, the porky stuff will be replaced by cafe stuff.

Yeah OP dude if you have an F model please don't butcher it up. Google Freddie Spencer replica. If you have a Custom or a K model you can go two ways; ride enjoy as is until you find a more suitable start or become aware of Chopcult.

Either way props to you for asking before you turned a serviceable motorcycle into a Craigslist project.

What we have here is a Dianese jacket, size 56, just aching to find it's forever home. I got it from a friend but the reality is I have so many jackets already I'll never wear it.
All original. Some patina included, in the form of bugs I'm too lazy to clean off and scrapes on one shoulder...
